So why fear, you simply obtained to do your job.”

In 36 seasons as a head coach, Brown has gone 288-154-1. He obtained his head-coaching begin at Appalachian State in 1983, then led Tulane in 1985 and, after three seasons there, went to North Carolina. Following back-to-back 1-10 seasons, Brown remodeled the Tar Heels program, taking them to 9 or extra wins 4 instances. Texas employed him in 1998, and he received the newest nationwide championship for the Longhorns in 2005.

Throughout his most up-to-date stint, he took North Carolina to the 2022 ACC championship recreation and helped Drake Maye grow to be a first-round draft choose in 2024.

Large begins to the 2022 and 2023 seasons — together with rising as excessive as No. 10 in 2023 — resulted in disappointment as Brown did not get North Carolina to the 10-win mark.

Nonetheless, the best way Brown’s group responded to adversity, and the dying of their beloved teammate, is one thing Brown instructed ESPN final week that he’ll all the time bear in mind.

“It is among the most satisfying years I’ve ever had due to the best way persons are responding to one another,” Brown mentioned earlier than the Boston Faculty recreation.

Une «overdose»? 

Le Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) confirme n’avoir trouvé aucune preuve d’un acte criminel sur place. L’enquête a désormais été transférée au coroner.

«Anthony, c’était vraiment un rayon de soleil, mais il avait beaucoup de problèmes de drogue depuis son jeune âge. Il ne s’en cachait pas. Il prenait un peu n’importe quoi, avec n’importe qui.

«Ce n’est pas regular de mourir dans la vingtaine, se désole Marie Gauthier. J’aimerais que les jeunes qui consomment réalisent à quel level c’est difficile pour les gens de leur entourage de survivre lorsqu’ils perdent quelqu’un dans ces conditions-là. C’est dangereux de jouer avec la roulette russe qui est dans les drogues aujourd’hui. On ne sait jamais avec quoi elles sont coupées.»

Gerardo Viens se réjouit néanmoins que son fils ait pu créer une communauté en ligne où il fait rire les internautes avec ses vidéos.

«C’était quelqu’un de pas gêné, tout le monde l’aimait et son sourire était contagieux. Il n’avait pas de malice. […] On espère que son histoire va au moins en sensibiliser d’autres», conclut le père endeuillé.
